I am moving out at the end of the month, but only because I recently bought a townhouse. I've lived in my 4th floor apartment with views of DC (mostly in the winter when the trees aren't full) for a year.

I don't live near the trash chutes and wouldn't recommend getting an apartment near them. There are roaches in the hallways, and near the door to the trash room. Its kinda gross to see the squished ones on the walls, but I only saw two in my apartment during my year long stay there.

The windows are terrible. When the wind blew (even slightly) my apartment was very very noisy.

I love the parking, I always find a spot near an entrance which I can't say for the other apartment buildings I've lived in. The store/dry cleaner are great, so handy to have in the building.

I have had no problems with management, probably because I never deal with them. I had to call emergency maintainence and even though it was midnight they were at my apartment in 5 minutes and fixed the problem.

This is place is great for the right people. People who keep to themselves, don't mind rules that aren't broken, and can deal with having to buy roach traps. For the price (which includes utilities) this was the perfect place for me to save some money and live for a year.

Who "doesn't mind buying roach traps"?? What fool would accept living with roaches?? Baffling.
